"Leviathan" by Scott Westerfeld is an alternative historical novel set during World War I, where the conflict is reimagined through the lens of steampunk technology and genetic manipulation. The story follows two protagonists: Alek, the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, who is on the run after his parents' assassination, and Deryn, a girl disguised as a boy to join the British Air Service. The two characters navigate a world of fantastical creatures and machines, ultimately finding their destinies intertwined as they confront the war's chaos, explore themes of identity, and challenge the boundaries between nations and species.
